This was a pretty interesting book. I’d seen Dr. Morse on youtube in a couple videos and had seen posts by her Ruth Institute before. This book has pretty interesting review of the sexual revolution showing how contraceptives were pushed through on Connecticut. The book isn’t that long, it fairly academic.
Her positions are vastly divergent from the common position of today, but they are well reasoned and were also the commonly held position globally for hundreds of years before the sexual revolution. I listened while driving so may have to listen to it again to really absorb some of the content.
The narrator, Cloey Kelly, is terrible. Easily worst I’ve heard on Audible. Sure she struggles with the Latin names of Vatican Documents, but she also garbled Thomas Aquinas and some how pronounced Aristotle as Aristotle-“E”. I couldn’t believe an adult in modern west did not know that name.
Really a young person reading this book was a mistake anyway, Dr. Morse is pretty old now and listening to her speak there is a calm sagelike wisdom conveyed…Cloey sounded lost a times, detached at times, and overall far to young to convey any confidence in the words from the page.
